HBO has cast three leading roles for Season 2 of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms<\/a>, which is now in production in Belfast and Spain. Season 2 adapts \u201cThe Sworn Sword\u201d, the second novella in George R.R. Martin\u2019s Tales of Dunk and Egg series<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Set a few years after the events depicted in Season 1, Season 2 brings in a new cast of characters for Dunk and Egg (Peter Claffey and Dexter Sol Ansell, respectively) to encounter, most notably Lady Rohanne Webber, aka the Red Widow, and Ser Eustace Osgrey, two rivals locked in a bitter land dispute as a drought devastates The Reach. <\/p>\n

Variety reports<\/a> that British actress Lucy Boynton (Bohemian Rhapsody, The Pale Blue Eye, Murder on the Orient Express) has been cast as Lady Rohanne Webber. In \u201cThe Sword Sword\u201d, Lady Rohanne is believed to be an old witch responsible for the deaths of her four husbands, but she is, in fact, an attractive young woman with political savvy and ambiguous intentions.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>L-R: Lucy Boynton, Peter Mullan, Babou Ceesay<\/p>\n

Scottish actor-filmmaker Peter Mullan (The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, Outlander: Blood of My Blood) will play Ser Eustace Osgrey, a proud old knight and veteran of the First Blackfyre Rebellion. Hedge knight Dunk swears his sword to him.<\/p>\n

Babou Ceesay (Alien: Earth, Into the Badlands) will play Ser Bennis. In the novella, Ser Bennis of the Brown Shield is a fellow hedge knight and ally of Dunk\u2019s.<\/p>\n

Showrunner Ira Parker recently told IGN that Mullan playing Eustace \u201cis just my favorite thing in the whole world because I remember when I saw him on Top of the Lake and just thought, \u2018One day I’m going to figure out how to work with that actor.\u2019 And so for this to happen is very nice.\u201d <\/p>\n
